At BravoCon in November, the former Olympic athletechatted with PEOPLE about how her son Deuce is “over the moon” to have a sibling.

“Deuce is over the moon,” Richards-Ross said. “I think he was waiting on me to get on board because he has been wanting to be a big brother for so long.”

The pregnancy comes after what Richards-Ross previously described to PEOPLE as“a really bad miscarriage.”

“It was tough,” the reality star said at BravoCon. “And I said to Deuce when we were going through this, we told him it wasn’t going to happen. I want him to be on the journey with us because life does not always go the way you planned. You’re going to have ups and downs. I thought it was a good lesson for him to know that even though we were prayerful, we did all the right things, it didn’t happen. As soon as it happened again, I told him.”

Handing her husband a pregnancy test casually, he took a closer look and said, “No way!”

“This is real?” he asked, to which she nodded as she started jumping up and down, cheering, “I’m pregnant!” before hugging everyone in the room.
